Photography Elements and Principles — Training your eye is the best thing you can do to get better at photography. Studying and identifying compositions can get a student better and better and thinking about it more and more rather than just shooting off dozens of frames. This worksheet gets students to actually consider the principles and elements of photography (which closely align with the same in art). Identify 2 for each of the principles and the elements (brief description of each on the left side).
 
This one-page Principles and Elements of Art Guide Sheet is a must-have reference for any art classroom! Designed as a concise, visual reminder, this sheet clearly outlines the fundamental principles and elements in a student-friendly format. Also included as 3 single pages for each one. Use it as a poster, handout, or as a creative Photo Challenge—have students capture real-life examples by choosing a certain number to complete, or selecting one from each row. It’s a flexible and interactive way to reinforce key concepts while encouraging visual thinking and observational skills.
